In terms of good optical properties and high thermal stability, Mo/Si3N4/Mo/Si3N4/SiO2 coatings based on metal/dielectric multilayer structure were adapted to the solar selective coating at high operating temperatures. The coatings exhibited high solar absorptance in the range of 0.924 ~ 0.936 and low thermal emittance of 0.114 ~ 0.118. The coatings deposited on quartz substrates were thermally stable up to 625 °C in air for 2 h, while they were degraded at 650 °C from the characterization of the absorptance and emittance. The degradation of the coatings was mainly due to the oxidation of molybdenum in air, which was confirmed by Raman spectroscopy. Compared with the thermal stability in air, the coatings were much more stable in vacuum under high temperature. The remarkable thermal stability of the Mo/Si3N4/Mo/Si3N4/SiO2 coatings in air and in vacuum makes them suitable to be applied at high temperature applications.

To meet the high requirements of fatigue strength and thermal stability for the large forging dies, the complex strengthening process tests of new high thermal stability die steel 5Cr2NiMoVSi were done. This complex strengthening process was nickel plating the RE boron penetration→ pre-cool quenching → high temperature tempering. The results show that the surface micro-hardness, high temperature oxidation resistance, thermal fatigue resistance and wear resistance of 5Cr2NiMoVSi steel can greatly be improved by these processes. It has achieved significant results for auto front axle large forging dies by using the materials and processing technology.

Environment-friendly lead-free piezoelectric ceramics with great properties and high thermal stability are desired in the industry. In this work, the Sm3+-modified lead-free 0.915(K0.45Na0.5Li0.05)NbO3–0.075BaZrO3–0.01(Bi0.5Na0.5)TiO3 (KNLN-BZ-BNT) ceramics are prepared. The piezoelectric properties are improved with the introduction of Sm3+, and the optimal properties (d33 = 325 pC/N and d33* = 384 pm/V) are achieved in the ceramic modified with 0.3 mol% Sm3+ ions. Meanwhile, this sample shows good thermal stability such that the values of d33* decreased less than 20% when the temperature raised from 30 to 180oC. These results show the Sm3+-modified KNLN-BZ-BNT ceramics are good for further applications even under high temperature.

We report a high thermal stability of kappa gallium oxide grown on c-plane sapphire substrate by metal organic chemical vapor deposition. Kappa gallium oxide is widely known as a metastable polymorph transitioning its phase when subjected to a high temperature. Here, we show the kappa gallium oxide whose phase is stable in a high temperature annealing process at 1000 °C. These oxide films were grown at 690 °C under nitrogen carrier gas. The materials showed high electrical resistivity when doped with silicon, whereas the film conductivity was significantly improved when doped with both indium and silicon. This work provides a pathway to overcoming limitations for the advance in utilizing kappa gallium oxide possessing superior electrical characteristics.

During the last two decades, a large effort has been devoted to improve the safety and performance of Li-ion batteries. Current commercial electrolytes are based on highly flammable solvents that make them dangerous for certain applications. Organosilicon (OS) electrolytes are a good alternative to conventional carbonate electrolytes. Silatronix has developed many organosilanes containing ethylene oxide units for \(Li^+\) coordination. These OS have properties suitable for their use in electrolytes including high thermal stability, high flash point, low vapor pressure and relatively low viscosities. The OS electrolytes are less flammable than commercial electrolytes, hence improving the safety of the batteries and have shown a performance comparable with the current standard electrolytes when used in Li-ion coin cells. Fluoroorganosilanes (FOS) have been found to be the best candidates for commercial application and have been successfully tested in coin cells at high temperature.
